hey guys,

well im in the process of getting a new turbo (the t72 blew) and i came a cross a free good condition turbo which is a precision t04r turbo. the only thing is it doesnt come with the hot side. so my question is what size should i go with? my motor will be completely built (ex. pistons, rods, valve train, 272 cams, port and polish) now im trying to make close to 800whp as possible with this turbo an i was thinking about getting the 1.15AR but didnt know if that would be way to laggy on this rb30 are not(i came from rb25). i will using e85 aswell for my fuel to high boost is not a prob im trying too aim for about 29psi as my high boost. i tried to look online but most post dont have results with the AR on it to compare. im not looking to get another turbo just needing help with this one to maximize my power from it.

thanks

Welcome to lag city

If you're not happy to consider a different turbo, all you can do is put the largest rear on it and be done with it. Don't complain about lag if you're not happy to change turbos :)

its not about me not wanting to get a better turbo, its about im getting this one for free until i get another one. i know i should expect lag, but im asking which AR is better for level of power im looking at with the stuff i have

the precision tO4r is very similar to a tO4 but the precision one has GT compressor wheel design and the old TO4 hot side and journal bearings so for road use... get a .82 or if they don't make one a .84 you will get 29psi with that using a big waste gate... you don't say what the purpose of this car is so it makes it difficult but if you were drag racing with a big stall converter and a trans brake you could go up to the next size I think that's a 1.00 and then 1.04 but a 1.15 is getting too big I think.. anyone else got an opinion??

i think the .84 would be to small for my application, but im using it for highway runs and to like mile runs to top out the car hoping to break over 200mph in a mile.

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
